A soldier who went missing after his helicopter was shot down during the Vietnam War…was buried at Arlington National Cemetery with full military honors. The remains of Army Specialist John L. Burgess of Sutton Bay, Mich., were buried today in a single casket with the remains of two members of his crew who had been previously identified. They were among five soldiers aboard a helicopter that crashed near the Cambodian border in 1970. Only one survived.
